Bob Dylan, if you cook, I’ll sew and make the flowers grow. I can only do so much.

I wonder if my very seemingly schizophrenic sister (not diagnosed, armchair guess from my own psych, but it is very classical and obvious) started out by having voices and thoughts that she knew weren’t hers but she was too scared to share it like me because when people hear you hear voices they think you believe them. My best friends and my brother trust me though. They do say get on the lithium expeditiously. Zoom call with my psych in a week and a half, guys!

Kate Gompert from Infinite Jest is supposed to have psychotic depression and she’s very normal. She’s just a one-off chapter character early on to set the tone of the mental illness themes of the book. Most realistic depiction of how someone with that actually acts I have ever seen… She won’t hurt people. She just gets mats in her hair and has her horrific random crying spells and would be such a bummer to hang around if she ever got out of her greasy sweaty bed
